在这部天然气之地纪录片片中,环保题材的《天然气之国》展现了一个不为人知的环保危机：数百万美国人在自家后院采集天然气，而天然气比宣传中所说的要有污染性得多。导演福克斯拍摄该片的起因是由于一家天然气公司试图在他家的土地上钻取天然气。
It is happening all across America-rural landowners wake up one day to find a lucrative offer from an energy company wanting to lease their property. Reason? The company hopes to tap into a reservoir dubbed the "Saudi Arabia of natural gas." Halliburton developed a way to get the gas out of the ground-a hydraulic drilling process called "fracking"-and suddenly America finds itself on the precipice of becoming an energy superpower.
《天然气之国》。Fracking scary。天下乌鸦一般黑。Gas "fracking" goes Hollywood。
